Hunger Pains

Hunger pains baby, this that nothing in the fridge flow Water in my cereal for days I had to live broke Hustling in these streets, sacrificed my life to get dough Even when I had it, I always had to go get more Every night, pasta noodles with some butter Recording classics in the gutter with my brothers Times were hard, but we were tougher Skipped the metro just to get my ass to work Couldn't use my debit, nothing in it that can match my worth Days late, dollars short, if survival was a sport I'd be balling on the court instead of falling on my sword Damn that shit is cutting deep, bleeding feelings on the beat Some of the things that I saw, got me jumping out my sleep I know this shit is in the past, but it's still a part of me Even though we hardly speak, I got love for ya Even when it's hard to see, sometimes I know I'm hard to reach, yeah Hope the Lord have mercy on the sinners like me On the sinners like me Hope the Lord have mercy on the sinners like me On the sinners like me, yeah Dealing with addiction, smoking and sipping Friends dealing with prescriptions, popping and sniffing I wonder, what's the difference if we're all addicted When we get low, we need a crutch to help us do the lifting Yeah, life a bitch and so is death, I heard they're soul sisters I find myself reminiscing, looking through old pictures Ain't kids no more and the way we're living is so different Time is money now, the cycle of it's so vicious The more I try to slow it down, the more it goes quicker So I just need to get away for a minute People calling, but today not really with it Rolling up a blunt, bout to smoke it till it's finished When it's done, I'll hit the other one I twisted I feel the stress lifting every time I take a puff Smoke bad for my lungs yet I fill them both up Yeah I said , yet I fill them both up These fuckin' reckless habits, bro Hope the lord have mercy on the sinners like me On the sinners like me Hope the lord have mercy on the sinners like me On the sinners like me, yeah Hope the lord have mercy on the sinners like me On the sinners like me Hope the lord have mercy on the sinners like me On the sinners like me, yeah
